Next stop…Cakeville. [Train Cake]

There has not been a lot of time to take progress pictures throughout, so these posts are becoming more of the “what I did,” rather than the “how I did,” types. Super fun, uber cool, little 5 year old wanted a train cake… complete with a carved out track and all.  And what do you … Continue reading →

Another quick note on a cake that I worked on last week.  This was a Breast of Luck Cake for a woman that has been diagnosed with breast cancer and is about to embark on the fight of [read: for] her life… starting with a double mastectomy.  Her close friends threw a get together this … Continue reading →

  It’s been a while… more than a year to be exact.  I’ve worked on projects throughout the year but it’s been more difficult to find the time to post about them.  What’s the phrase – You can’t do it all, all of the time?  Anyway, a very special little 4 year old needed a … Continue reading →

There I am, jamming the “close door” button repeatedly, while I whisper “come on, let’s go, go, go” over and over again under my breath, which has been stolen from me by the 50-yard dash that would make my 3rd grade gym teacher shake her head at.  The short ride north passes as if time has … Continue reading →

“Elementary, my dear Watson…” No, seriously… this is literally elementary. The recipe is written inside of a coloring-book-type turkey drawing: The recipe that I am about to share (or I guess I already did above) is one that you should keep for a long, long time. You might want to take visual note (or pretend … Continue reading →

There it is ladies and gentleman… the queen bee to the hive; the sunshine to a beach day; the Kim Kar”ugh”ian to the land of all things inessential, unproductive and space-wasting… the center ring to a warm, ooey, gooey, cinnamon bun.  You know exactly what I am talking about.  Whether you are the type who starts … Continue reading →

I’ve got dough on my mind all of the time today… and after a quick little knee surgery yesterday, I am stuck on the couch with the kitchen just out of my reach.  Sigh.  On a great note, I’ve been asked to bake doughnuts for a fall cider birthday party here in town; therefore, it … Continue reading →

I’m in deep, deep, deep trouble now… and it’s not just like taylor “fish” (as my kiddies call her – which is odd because she’s obsessed a little with cats – the two don’t mix) “I knew you were trouble” type trouble… no, no… this is your friends drank the bar and your mom is … Continue reading →

Pinterest and cilantro… can you guess the connection?  They are both things that the general population either loves, or hates.  That’s it.  There is no inbetween, no grey area, no “you’re getting closer, closer now…”  You are either here or there and that is it. I happen to love both.  However, there is one part … Continue reading →
